Rough Buff On Zone Classic????
« on: June 24, 2006, 11:30:00 AM »
Any one tried polishing their Zc with Rough Buff?
Mines the Green Pin..very long ..very angular backend.Just cant seem to control it.I know theres a good in ball there somewhere  so I thought I might try Rough buff.

Try knocking the polish off, I took mine to 2000, definitely helps to smooth it out.

For anyone who may be interested.....I went over the ball with a green scotchbrite,then appiled a coat of Rough Buff.Better, but still too angular...
Next I applied 2 coats of Track's Delayed Reaction polish...viola!!
This ball is now smooth as...seems to just lope down the lane,then a nice arc to the pocket...beautiful!!!

That's the best thing to try in the first place. Without polish and a sheen surface, you will get a much better and consistent read from the ball. And it is simple, too.
